Fashion Vintage: Winter Wear...

Inspired by the winter weather, I hunted down some good old vintage fashion flair to help keep me warm on these icy cold nights. There's nothing quite so nice as inspiring cold weather attire to put one in the mood for the holidays!

So whether you imagine yourself skating in the park, window shopping with good friends, or heading out to that glamorous holiday bash in one of these delightful ensembles...hang on to your hats! They're simply delicious!

Oh! How often do I wish that modern fashions would go back to hats and gloves! Thanks so much for sharing!

Gorgeous! I love vintage fashions. What I wouldn't give for a red coat like that 1948 model, or the dress/gloves/pearl choker combination from 1952...

Thanks for the stop by my blog. I am still getting used to the glasses, but I think they will work out. My parents really like them.

I also really like the 1948 style of keeping warm in the winter.

Have a Great Day!

Love the fashions.

I wish hats would come back in, especially those little stylish ones from the 50s and early sixties. I feel a little cheated that my mother's generation got to wear hats and gloves, but our generation spurned those things -- unless you were standing in six inches of snow or skiing, which seldom happened in my Southern town. LOL. Oh well, we can take the lasting principles of style and apply them to what's popular now, I suppose. But, I do adore those vintage photos!!
